An observable sensitive to the chiral magnetic wave (CMW) is charge asymmetry dependence of ?? and ?+ anisotropic flow difference, ??n(Ach). We show that, due non-flow correlations, measurements by Q-cumulant method using all charged particles as reference introduce a trivial linear term The slope contribution triangle difference ??3(Ach) can be negative if dominated back-to-back pairs. This ex...

Landslides associated with hillside cuttings in igneous rock saprolites are a serious natural hazard in Hong Kong and have been extensively studied by government agencies and local universities for many years from the perspective of soil and rock engineering. A review of the case studies for some major landslides, especially deep-seated landslides, shows certain puzzling features. First, a numb...

BACKGROUND It is known that the back muscles of scoliotic subjects present abnormalities in their fiber type composition. Some researchers have hypothesized that abnormal fiber composition can lead to paraspinal muscle dysfunction such as poor neuromuscular efficiency and muscle fatigue. EMG parameters were used to evaluate these impairments. The purpose of the present study was to examine the ...

STUDY DESIGN Case control study. PURPOSE To examine the effect of spino-pelvic sagittal parameters and back muscles on osteoporotic vertebral fracture. OVERVIEW OF LITERATURE Low bone mass is not the only important component of the risk on osteoporotic vertebral fracture; many other risk factors also contribute to skeletal fragility. METHODS Seventy-two patients who had a lateral radiogra...

two dimensional slope profile morphometric investigation in a part of the land failure prone garhwal region of the lesser himalaya, tehri district, u. p., india, indicates that the landslip morphology is closely related to the dominant movement processes active in this terrain. technique developed for the morphometric analysis of landslips involves the use of five morphometric indices. each ind...

Many slope filtrations occur in algebraic geometry, asymptotic analysis, ramification theory, p-adic theories, geometry of numbers... These functorial filtrations, which are indexed by rational (or sometimes real) numbers, have a lot of common properties. We propose a unified abstract treatment of slope filtrations, and survey how new ties between different domains have been woven by dint of de...

Abstract— In a reverberant environment, the performance of acoustic event recognition system can be bolstered by choosing appropriate feature descriptors and classifier techniques. Neural networks are by far providing stunning classification results when compared to other classifiers. This paper analyses two different neural networks and their precision when they both stumble upon same targets ...

We proposed a method for improving the performance of the back propagation algorithm by introducing the adaptive gain of the activation function. In a ‘feed forward’ algorithm, the slope of the activation function is directly influenced by a parameter referred to as ‘gain’. In this paper, the influence of the adaptive gain on the learning ability of a neural network is analysed. Multi layer fee...
